Surface-Mount Light

Surface-mount trailer lights install using a flange or bracket with mounting holes. These lights lay flat against the trailer surface and only require a small, often pre-existing hole, for wiring. Mounting hardware is used to secure the light to the trailer.

Today we're taking a look at the Peterson Pirana LED trailer tail light. Now this oval trailer tail light serves three functions on trailers less than 80 inches wide. It can also be used for trailers over 80 inches wide. But it provides your turn signal light, taillight, and brake light all built into one unit. It features durable surface mount technology when it comes to the construction of the led circuit board. That design better withstands shock and vibration and allows for improved heat distribution and overall thinner construction.

It is a LED system. LEDs make great replacements for incandescent lights. It is compatible with both 12 volt and 24 volt DC systems.Surface mount installation, so no grommet or anything is required. It's got the built in mounting flange with four mount holes. The mount hole separation, this one and this one, are separated on center by two and three quarter.

This one and this one are separated on center by seven inches. And it can be mounted in any 360 degree position.On the backside, you'll notice that it's a three wire design. So white wire with the ring terminal. That's our ground wire. Black is for the tail lights and red is for stop and turn.

It's Department of Transportation compliant. It meets FMVSS108 requirements for automotive lighting.A few measurements to go over with you real quick. Then we'll hook it up to power so you can see what it looks like with some power running to it. Measuring edge to edge going this direction measures about seven and a half inches long. Edge to edge going this direction is about three and one quarter inches.

The overall depth is about 7/8 of an inch deep. So it's a nice thin design. The lens measures about six and 7/16 by two and one quarter.We're going to go and hook it up to power and then we'll turn off our overhead lights so you can see it in a low light setting. Again, white wire is the ground wire. Black wire is that main power wire. That's for the tail lights. And red is for stop and turn signal,So you can see here that it sends out a nice clear, consistent signal. It contains a total of 10 diodes. That's 10 LEDs. So the multi diode design really helps optimize the overall light output. This is the taillight function. When we apply the brakes, you can see how that signal output increases. Does that same thing in a flash pattern when we apply the turn signals. The input voltage is nine volt to 32 volt DC. The product is made in the USA and the LEDs have a limited lifetime warranty on them. That's going to do it for today's look at the Peterson Pirana LED trailer tail light.

Bought lots of stuff good company very satisfied fast shipping. Thanks

3/15/2013 Item 168A - Just the right size light I was looking for to use as a side marker for a motorcycle cargo trailer. Well built product. I used with its black base (B168-18) that fit well also. LED lighting excellent. Just great to deal with etrailer folks.

Review from a similar Peterson Piranha in Trailer Lights

Replaced poorly designed lights on a travel trailer with these. The original lamps were not weather proof and used tensioned contacts that were prone to oxidation and corrosion from the elements. These LED lamps are sealed in epoxy so the elements will not affect them. Each lamp has two LEDs and a 6" wiring pigtail.

3 stars because of the clunky design, no gasket or screws. That said these are nice and bright and add turn signals to the side of the motor home; hope fully that will make us more visible. Used # 12 SS screws 1 inch long to mount.

Review from a similar Peterson Piranha in Trailer Lights

All the products have been great. They were installed on an older livestock trailer and they just keeping going. The white LED lights we put on the inside work too good. When I first pulled them out I thought they were too small and would do the job. They are so good we rarely use the one up front because the back one does such a great job.
Thanks for the good products.

I used four of these sealed led lights to replace the clearance lights that came on my Shorelander boat trailer. The hole spacing fit the existing holes and the lights have held up very well to over 100 launches and recoveries in salt water. I recommend them.
